When you decide to do a home addition, one question you should ask yourself and your custom remodeler is how the addition will blend into the existing structure. After all, who wants a house with a wart? This is where professional design is a plus. The addition should be harmonious with the rest of the home. Whether that means the same design or a completely different but complementary look, you should be satisfied that no one will ever say, “I see where the new addition starts.”

Good design always trumps expensive materials. You can choose top-of-the-line granite and flooring for your new kitchen remodel, but if the finished product looks like a disjointed room from the rest of the house, you’ve wasted your money. The construction designer should be recommending ways to blend the addition with the existing structure, whether that means transitions with flooring or similar trim or windows to the rest of the home. Your custom remodeler should offer ways to have the old “flow” into the new, so that the update looks natural. Regardless of the job, “new and improved” should still not look like an add-on.

Thank you for valuing us…and being so customer-oriented. I have to say that your weekly e-newsletter and information were very valuable.

TCB did a complete kitchen remodel for me and were a pleasure to work with. They treat their clients courteously and professionally while providing the know-how to help you achieve your project on time and on budget. I highly recommend them.

We are thrilled with the end result and have enjoyed our new space more than we could have imagined. The combined creativity of your Architect and your team allowed us to turn our dream into a reality of adding a new space which includes three levels to encompass a new basement, kitchen/family room, and master suite.

Rick and his team were exceptional to work with from the initial design and concept through final delivery. We were thrilled with his attention to detail and the value that we got for our money.

Thomas Custom Builders took my vision and made it so much better, suggesting ideas that I would never have thought of and nixing ideas that were not practical but always explaining why I might want to think of something different.

We always got the impression from the crew that they treated our project as if they were working on their own house and not a corner was cut or a detail was missed.

If you’re contemplating a home improvement project (and ours was fairly major) don’t make any decisions until you talk with Thomas Custom Builders. You’ll be so very glad you did!
